Abstract

To dissect the effects of corticosteroids mediated by the mineralocorticoid (MR) and the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in the central nervous system, we compared MR −/− mice, whose salt loss syndrome was corrected by exogenous NaCl administration, with GR −/− mice having a brain‐specific disruption of the GR gene generated by the Cre/loxP‐recombination system. Neuropathological analyses revealed a decreased density of granule cells in the hippocampus of adult MR −/− mice but not in mice with disruption of GR. Furthermore, adult MR −/− mice exhibited a significant reduction of granule cell neurogenesis to 65% of control levels, possibly mediated by GR due to elevated corticosterone plasma levels. Neurogenesis was unaltered in adult mice with disruption of GR. Thus, we could attribute long‐term trophic effects of adrenal steroids on dentate granule cells to MR. These MR‐related alterations may participate in the pathogenesis of hippocampal changes observed in ageing, chronic stress and affective disorders.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
